An out-of-control bushfire is threatening lives in three central Victorian towns, just a few kilometres away from where a deadly major fire burned in January.
The fire has started on a day on which emergency services are warning people to stay alert to extreme fire danger across the state.
Residents of Kerrisdale, Tallarook and Trawool – about 15 kilometres south of Seymour – are being urged to take shelter immediately from the blaze as it is too late to evacuate.
“You are in danger and need to act immediately to survive,” the 1.55pm warning read. “The safest option is to take shelter indoors immediately. It is too late to leave.”
